Can I use the full size mattress on a Futon?

I think it would be too thin and uncomfortable. I have it on a bed frame and I had to buy a 2 inch mattress topper for it and it's okay now.

IF you are just using it as a bed I don't see why not, if it's folding into a couch, maybe not, matress may be too thick, I think they make memory foam mattresses just for futons though .

This is a regular mattress for a bed. It could possibly fit on a futon frame, but it would never have the bend of a mattress designed for a futon.

Yes, we have the full size version of this mattress on the top bunk of a (full sized) bunk bed with wooden slats. It works perfectly well.

If you have a nice thick mattress to distribute the weight a bit, it should be fine, IMO. Super thin futon would probably not be so good... I broke a slat on mine by putting all my weight on the weakest spot 1/4 of the way in from the edge, not a dive onto the bed exactly, but not the gentlest maneuver. We just have a thin futon and a topper. They sent me a new slat and I've been more respectful, so all good.

I can't answer that specifically; the mattress I use it on is Full with a Pillow top -- and it fits very nicely there. My experience with futon mattresses is that they tend to be flatter -- so I cannot accurately tell you if the elastic would pull snug on a flat mattress. Sorry I can't be of more help there.

Yes, but I wouldn't go any bigger. Futons need to lay down and sit up right. 8" is perfect for this giving good support, but not to thick that it could be difficult to adjust.

I believe so. My roommate currently uses the one I purchased for him on top of his futon mattress with no issues. It gives just enough extra cushion to a not-so-good mattress to make it decent. Hope this helps.

No. I used a regular full sized mattress on the bottom and a twin on the top.

A full size mattress is 54 x 75. So you should by a protector for Full size.

yes..remember tho.. allow a day or two for the mattress to air out and to "inflate" to it full size.. sleeps very good!

I am assuming that the dimensions shown are based on the size of the futon in the upright position. A full size mattress fits perfectly, so it must be 54" wide in the flat position. The frame is of high quality. My only problem with it is it's difficult to change from the flat to the upright position. Hope this helps.

Yes , that is how I prefer it, as it makes the seating posture higher; When used as a bed I suggest at least an 8" or 10 " good mattress since there are spaced slots on the futon.

I think so, may be not quite . I have full size mattress and its plenty big for that.

The weight rating is 300lbs including people so it depends on the weight of the matress and the weight of the people who will be sleeping on it. I have friends who borrow mine who put a full size futon matress on it... it is the size a full size bed.

I'm pretty sure you can't. There are slightly other configurations, for instance with a twin bed under. It's a great bed, very durable, my kids love it. The full sized bed is on casters and can stand alone, so you don't have to use it if you don't want it.

Any full size mattress will fit but if you have a box spring it makes the bed higher
